Oven Chips

1. 1

   Preheat oven to highest temperature, generally 240 degrees Celsius.

2. 2

   Lightly oil a large shallow roasting tin and place it in the oven to get really hot while you prepare the potatoes.

3. 3

   Cut the potatoes in half lengthwise, then into long thin wedges, or thicker ones if you prefer.

4. 4

   Brush each side lightly with oil (or just pop them into a large bowl, pour some oil over and mix them around a few times to coat them).

5. 5

   When the oven is really hot, remove the pan carefully and scatter the potato wedges over it, spreading them out in a single layer over the hot oil.

6. 6

   Sprinkle the potato wedges with the herbs and salt and roast for about 20 minutes, or longer if they are thicker.

7. 7

   They will be ready when they are golden brown, crisp and lightly puffy.

8. 8

   Remove from oven and serve with a dollop of mayonnaise.
